Tank 1, coarse filter to remove large pieces, follow by fluidized bed of k1. Getting all of the pieces to fluidize was tricky. But was able to get them flowing with strategically placed air stones.
Tank 2, floss, floss, floss, floss, floss. Ceramic rings. I have a small bag of carbon on the next chamber. Can't decide what else to put there. Pump chamber for water return.


Main tank is 72gallons with 2 diy overflows. Have 1 18" silver arowana, 1 12" L25 pleco, 1 8" red Severum, 1 red head geo.
 
Yup, shopping around for a 180 at the moment. The 72 will be a South American cichlid tank when the big boys move out.

Looks nice!

Going to need alot larger than a 180 for the silver though.
